Hi, is it true UBB 7 can't be configured to allow for rating your own topics?

If you turn it on \:\)

In control panel you can turn both topic and member ratings on and off.

I know you can rate topics, but can you configure it to rate topics that *you've started* (i.e. your own topics)?

In UBB 6 you could rate your own, but I've been told that in v7 you can't.

Thanks Mark, but from my point of view as a user it's a bug that you can't rate your own topics.

I use a forum for a popular CAD package which has a section for posting ideas about the program's development. I don't always rate mine 5 stars; sometimes I'm just posting an idea to see what others think. Sometimes I rate other people's ideas higher than my own. But now I can't rate mine at all since upgrading to v7. And the beauty about rating your own is that it encourages others to use the rating system, which I have to say is not very visible as it stands.

For a much better implementation of a forum rating system see WordPress':

Hmm, a poll, I'll try that, thanks Mark.

How do I submit a bug for the loss of own-topic rating tho?
